I would feel the exact same way. Every time I get a collectible I’m filled with both excitement and stress. I’m always worried I’ll find a defect and I’m gutted when I do. Hopefully your replacement is 100% perfect and your figure shows up.
Hey buddy. The second Marty is already on it way. Hopefully I’ll get that one LOL. The problem apparently was that the first Marty they sent me was put in a locker at the pickup point, and they were supposed to text me a QR Code for me to scan and open the locker. Except I never got that text. So after sitting 10 days in that locker, it went back to the retailer. I hope I won’t have to wait too long for that second DeLorean, too. I’m already stress it might be even worse than the first one.
Sorry to hear your sad news on your grandmother…..stay strong! Regarding the light I would follow up about a replacement and in the meantime I would still hugely enjoy the piece. I have so many light up figures that play up over time I refuse to stress over them. It will be good in the end!
Thanks a lot bro. It broke my heart sending it back but that’s what I did. For this money I want perfection. But now imagine if all LEDs work on the next one but the wheels are broken lol. All fingers crossed. I’ll post an update.
Oh man!!! That really sucks that this has happened to you and on top of losing your Marty and especially your Grandma. Prayers to you 🙏 I hope your Marty shows up or you can at the very least get your money back! And as others have mentioned, hope you can work out a replacement for the DeLorean. I know it's a real pain to have to return big pieces like this, but if it can't be fixed on your end it'll be worth it in the end to get it replaced! Good luck. Keep your head up! 💗
Thanks a lot, bro. Thanks for the kind words regarding my grandma ❤️ I can always get another Marty and Delorean. Sadly no one will ever replace her. The store sent me a second Marty so hopefully that one will arrive. I already sent the Delorean back and am waiting on the replacement. All fingers crossed right now 🤞🏼
Brother, maybe a plug came loose!!! Tony Marine took apart his DeLorean on his channel! This has helped a lot of people fix their lighting issues. Hope this helps brother.
By Toni Marine… You mean, you? lol. Yes I’ve seen that video. But if I’m gonna spend 900/1000 bucks into a 1/6 car, the least I expect is to not have to spend 10 hours taking apart and repair it. I want perfection for this kind of money. Thanks for watching !
@@eivoMSeb Yeah me! Lol! Yes, I understand. I thought it would be difficult for you to send it back. I wanted to hopefully save you the trouble. It's actually very easy to take apart but completely understand wanting perfection on such an expensive model. Take care my friend!
@@2NDCBT I actually came across your video the other day. But it just shows the car already disassembled, but not the process of disassembling it. Maybe with that I would have taken the risk. Let’s see how the next one is. I just hope it’s not even worse 🙏🏼
Oh bro! I have to say a big thank you to you! 🙏🏽 I had mine sitting in the box for the past 3 weeks or so, after seeing your video I thought I better check mine so I unboxed it and what do you know, I have the same dam problem 😒 Just contacted my retailer to work something out. 😒
Mine is already back on its way to my retailer. I just hope the next one isn’t even worse. I hate this situation . But for this kind of cash I want perfection and nothing less.
Hello! My condolences 😢 and what a fucking bummer!!! I'd send it back regrettably. Excited to see your ecto 1!! And your wand video's!! You were a HUGE inspiration on me building my haslab afterlife pack. I can't thank you enough!! I'm just finishing up now 7 months later lol 😂 regardless, great video brother!!!
Thank you so much, man. I did send it back. Waiting for the replacement right now. But I’m shaking in my boots to the idea that the replacement might be worse LOL. Thanks a lot for the kind words regarding the proton pack. Regarding the wand, I will eventually do the video. But I’m still slowly gathering parts. There will be two or three more mods to my pack, that I’ll show in the same video. I don’t know when I’ll make this video, but I promise I’ll eventually make it so stay tuned 😉 Thanks for watching brother 🤜🏼 💥 🤛🏼
LMFAO I Actually DID try that off camera but it didn’t work lol. It’s all good now, since I got a replacement with everything working on it. Except a little glitch that I can’t consider a problem, but more like something that makes mine unique. Thanks for watching 🤜🏼 💥 🤛🏼
Hi Seb long time no chat brother! My deepest condolences for your grandmother my friend sending big hugs from the u.k. Man that's some shitty goings in with your missing marty to start with without the shit you have with the delorean interior light being broke. I really feel your pain there. It's a bloody expencive peice to have go wrong and all we collectors want it the bloody thing to work as it should do out of the box. Is that too much to ask? I think not. But like you say its a major hassle sending it back and then wondering will the next one come scratched or somthing else be wrong in a worse state than this one. But it is expencive. Mabe ask what sort of discount they can do if you were to keep this one. But if it does bug you just get it swapped. See what they say first and make a decision. All the best from the u.k Brother, Jase.
Hey brother. Always a pleasure hearing from you. Thanks a lot for your kind words. Delorean is already on its way back to my retailer. Fingers crossed the next one comes without a problem. I’ll post an update but I’m freaken nervous already lol.
salut Seb from another Seb ^_^ sorry to see this, man. I received mine today as well from belgium and i also have a flawed one. Well, the wheel caps on the underside (on top in flightmode) are inconsistent in the paint job. one is so dim, it almost looks as if the light is broken. if i was using the stand you would see it more prominent, as it is on the drivers side. What is wrong with Hot Toys QC? this is an effing expensive collectible... i already contacted LCDN. hope they can do something for us ;-)
But is it really the paint of the wheel cap, or is it actually a problem with the LED? Honestly you don’t see the light coming out on top in the movie, so if that would have been a problem on mine, i would have just repainted all wheel caps black lol.
@@eivoMSeb i know it's not accurate to the movie, but i will display it in flight mode at an angle (not with this monstrous stand though) with Doc leaning out "talking to Marty". So you are not really able to see the wheels from below anyway. I don't mind the light spill, cause it's still nice to look at. The LEDs are not the problem, i checked. It's really the sloppy paint job and too much paint on this one cap. So, yes, no "flaw" compared to your failing LED in the board, but still a thing, when you pay such a high price for a collectible. QC was and seems to be still an issue with HT. Good luck to you and let's hope LCDN can help you quick.
